Maybe Millhouse knows? :) To me it wouldn't make sense.

Betreff: Question on programmatic changing of logging level

 

Hi all,

 

I found this code in a stack overflow question/answer:

 

private static readonly ILog logger =
LogManager.GetLogger(MethodBase.GetCurrentMethod().DeclaringType);

 

PatternLayout layout = new PatternLayout(@"%date %-5level
%message%newline");

   FileAppender appender = new FileAppender();   

    RollingFileAppender appender = new RollingFileAppender();  // why same
variable used for second "new" object?

    appender.Layout = layout;

    appender.File = "c:\log.txt";

    appender.AppendToFile = true;

    appender.MaximumFileSize = "1MB";

    appender.MaxSizeRollBackups = 0; 

    appender.Threshold = Level.Error;

    appender.ActivateOptions();                       

    log4net.Config.BasicConfigurator.Configure(appender);

 

I am confused by the line I commented - why would anyone use the same
variable twice as this code shows?  It would seem that the "FileAppender
appender = new FileAppender();" line (above the commented line) is
pointless, but maybe the code is not complete, or there is something about
log4net that I'm not getting.

 

Here is the stack overflow link:

Thanks in advance,
